I just want to see a DSD player available so we can all listen without the recorder to play back on.
Tascam DV-RA1000HD
you didn't finish my quote, "at a reasonable price"
I don't think the tascam comes into the reasonable playing field at 1600$ and up
Some may find it a reasonable price yet I do not in "my world"
Might as well just use the korg for playback as well.
Sure I did. $1600 is VERY reasonable for DSD. Price out a Sonoma system. If $1600 is not in your "reasonable" price range then it's probably not your time to step up to DSD. The Korg is "cheap" DSD, by comparison (even the big one).
um which is what I stated above. in reply to bgalizio.
How many DSD recordings have you done and what unit are you using? If you don't have one what is holding you back?
Also even if I wanted to spend the money on the DSD unit which I could right now if I felt the need I am not doing it. Why because I am waiting on units to become available at a affordable price so I can share my recordings with others. Hell as it is right now try sharing DVD-A's
half the people don't even own a dvd player that can play them yet.
none of my friends do because they have older DVD players that don't support the format.
They are not going to buy a new DVD player just because I gave them a handful of DVD-A's
Try asking someone what 24 bit is besides the people here.
I ran a poll on another forum and an option I put was what is 24 bit?
Over half the people chose that option and I don't think it was because they were being cute.
Obviously it wasn't scientific either, i'm just adding that in.
24 bit is not for everyone yet and DSD is on the fringe still. I really hope it takes off in the next year though and when more options for DSD recording as well as standalone playback become available I will move that way.
I digress though this isn't what this thread is about.
